THURSDAY EVENING, MAY 12, 1842. FAMILY GOVERNMENT. Unwilling to disturb the kindly feelings all along cherished by many of the prominent men of tlio Whig party in Ohio, towards M r. Tyler, we have in a great ntooeure suppressed the indignation which the details of his administration am so well calculated to excite. But the continued exhibition of weakness, hypocrisy and a profligate bestowal of government patronage, has, we feel conscious, moro effectually impressed the public mind with the odiousnesa of the present Executive rule, titan any view which wo could have presented in anticipation. All that is now necessary, to render the public opinion perfectly sound in regard to Mr. Tyler, is information of the real character of his acts. The sway of Mr. Tyler hero in Ohio, is more to he deprecated than any tiling ever before fastened upon us. Little did the founders of our State think, wlton they were responding to the loud and hearty amen to the denunciations contained in the Declaration of 1776, against a British King, '(fur sending hither awanns of officers among us to eat out the substance" of tho American people, that in little more than half a century, one of our own citizens filling the office of President, would commit, if possible, a greater outrago on the feelings of freemen. But such is the fact. Bo far as the Exocutive government of (he Union prevails in this Stato, it is a most heartless despotism f more resembling that of the Turk governing through the instrumentality of a body of Jamznries, titan a government of public opinion. Strange as it moy appear to some at a distance, two brothers-in-law of John Tyler, wield the the whole power of the federal government in Ohio. One is at the head of the Post Office in this city, surrounded by an official coterie of imported rela tions and family friends of the President and himself ; and the other is the editor of a newspaper, recently set up by tho family for tho express purpose of writing down Whip; principles. We Sieak advisedly when we say, that this pnper was established to make war upon Whig principles and prominent Whig Statoatnnn, at a time when many of those men were apparently in Mr. Tyler's confidence, and before there was any broach between him and them. We know that negociations at that early dny were set on foot, to get an editor to perform this fratricidul work; and that on fuiluro to procure a suitablo instrument, one of the worthy brothers-in-law himself undertook the task. And such is now tho situation of affairs in this State, thiit these two men, who, if public opinion was left to opcrato unaided by the factitious influence of Executive unction, would be of no moro account than a brace of lecturers on Animal Magnetism, ex. ercise pro-consular powers over the interests, predilections and want, of a million and half of freemen.No man is daring enough to aspire to public place without thoir permission, and none can long retain office, without propitiating their favor. As a specimen of their insolent conduct, we will mention a cose of recent occurrence. A few weeks since, Dr. Mailer, one of the ostensible editors of Mr. Tyler's paper here, mado a rapid tour to the Northeastern part of tho Stato, for tho professed pur pose of procuring subscriptions ; and grant were tlic boasts of his success. Tuts was the business assigned to tho public, but wo have reason to know or believe, that a rigid survcillanco of the Post Offices, was the mincinnl object of the visitation. That he was faith ful to his trust, is not to bo questioned. All the in cidents connecter! with this famous expedition con scarce yet have seen the light How many Post Mastors were threatened with tho loss ot Uieir places, if they did not oxcrt thctnsclvos to further the object of Mr. Tyler's emissary, or how many of the new subscribers were obtained by means thus used, can perhaps never be known. But one fact has transpired which will servo to open up the clandcslino objects of this remarkable mission. Whilst at Massillop, Stark co this government spent and stipendiary made the acquaintance of a irentlcman who was noth ing loth to become a Post Muster; and who to prove his worth and qualifications conducted Dr. Ai. through tho town and aided him in begging support fur his press. This was but civil to a strangor; but let us see the sequel. In just about the time requisite fur a letter to be conveyed horo and have one transmitted hence to Washington, and back again to Mnssil-lon, the Post Master of tint place, a well tried and rmrsovoring Whig, got his discharge ; and this master of ceremonies ; this caterer for tho Old School Republican; this supple-jack who so obsequiously bowed Dr. Mtt'llor through tho streets of Mnssillnn, was inducted into the place thus made vacant Thus ended a profitable job ; light work, and good as well prompt pay for a half day's service, and promiso of fealty to John Tyler. How much information was obtained, on this tour and anothor which succeeded it into the Western part of tho State, by which other removals and promotions may bo guided, we cannot be presumed to have any present means of knowledge.It was but tho other day tint the Madiaonian, the well-fed organ of tho President at Washington, very emphatically hinted that it might be well for Prut Masters to enlist in its support, or prepare to walk the plnnk. The same svstetn of discipline and accountability is to be established in the States, and here they re given to understand by the course of removals and appointments, that they must sustain all the branches of the family and their adherents; and hero-after when one of tho Arm, a distant connexion or cntor-cousin shall pan through tho country, every village Post Master will be expected to present himself to tho representative of authority with all the becoming submission of a Russian serf. And this i. the wsv Mr. Tvler carries out the famous procla mation of his determination to keep the atroiiago of the government Irom iiucricring wiui uie iree course of public opiiiion. RHODE ISLAND. Affiiini now appear to bo approaching a crisis in this State. Tho Agitators have proceeded so far as to incur the responsibility which their acta have in' volved from Uie beginning, and the proper authorities are now actively engaged in holding them to it We trust there will ho no flinching. We hope the leaden) will he made, every man of tliein, to atone for their crimes, in the cells of the Penitentiary. If blood should chance to flow, of which howevor, tlio danger is not great let tlio murderers swing. It seems that tho recreinl Dorr, who boasted of his willingness to consummate his treasonable designs, by passing over (As dmd My of Ail oint father, has coine up among the missing. This is usually the way with braggarts of his stamp they are apt to prove poltroons, and after having committod others to ofleu-eea against tlio peace of society, to be tho first to look for tlio means of oscaie. Wa perceive in somo of Uie accounts, that one of Dorr's acts, whilst Governor, was to issue a proclamation to collectors and others, commanding them to pny over the public monies into his hands. Dorr might have got prolty well paid for his patriotism, if he had been loll unmolested awhile, until ho could have got the public Treasury into his possession. He might havo sloped for Texas, and been there enabled to enter upon a still more prominent career by engaging in an expedition for tho plunder of Christian churches in Mexico. He is more like now to acquire the ertiali-eal accomplishment of hewing stone, under tho masters of that art, in one of tho publio institutions in the Rtato. Doubtless when he take hi degree, he will ba better qualified to discharge tho duties of a good ciUicu. NO BUSINESS OP OURS. If we had been charged with stealing had pros ecuted the author of the declaration for damages and had been turned oif by a jury of twelve men, with the paltry verdict of thru hundred and eighty- seven dollart and fifty unit, we would'nt trouble any body to recollect the circumstances. We should nt feel like " croitririg." We would be willing to let tho matter sleep. The public, for aught wo should be guilty of doing, would be allowed to forget tuch a vindication of one's reputation. The Statesman will of course do as it likes under similar circumstances! Perhaps the friends of the editor were gratified to find that he had any character at all, If so, a littlo bluster will not be surprising, howevor it may argue the want of prudence and sense. RUSSELL'S PLANETARIUM. We are authorized to state that Russell's Planeta rium will be exhibited about the first of July, in this city, with Lectures on Astronomy. A Telescope will also be exhibited which has the power of Magnifying 400 times. THE PRESIDENCY IN 1644. On the occasion of Mr. Van Buren's arrival at the Hermitage, a committee of his late supporters for tho Presidency in 1810, of Davidson county, Tennessee, waited upon him with a letter, expressive of their feelings towards him as a public man, and containing an invitation to a Public Dinner on behalf of the citizens of Nashville and vicinity. The letter of tho committee contains tho following allusions to political matters : " In conveying to vou this invitation, allow us to assure you that it is offered by a largo, intelligent and respectable portion of our community, who look with pride upon your public course, and will always hail you as tho consistent, uniform and able advocate of the doctrines of the Republican party. Especially during your administration of the General Government have thev scanned vour actions and they re joice at the evidence which they afford of an integ rity tliat is unsjioitco, ana oi a nnnnoss anu ucvoteu-ness to constitutional duty that will ever command the admiration of the country. " We contrrutulute you, sir, on their belialt, thnt although the party adverse to the principles on which fou administered the government succeeded in tlio ate presidential election, nothing yet has occurred to impair the force of those principles, or to show that tiie great mass of tlio people will not again rally to their support as soon as they see fully developed the consequences resulting from a departure from them." MR. VAN IJUllKN'S REPLY. Nasiivilie, April 89, 184a G KSTi.EMr.x : I have the pleasure to acknowledge tho receipt of your letter of tlio tiOtli instant and to return my respectful ana grnteiui acknowledgment to the democratic citizens of Nushvillo, and its neighborhood, for tlio cordial as well as earnest expression of their approbation of my character and services generally, but moro especially ot my otliciul conduct during the most important and certuinly not the least difficult pciiod of my political life, which you havo communicated to uie in their behalf. Cominrr from anv portion of niv fellow-citizens. equally entitled to my respect and regard, such testi monials couia not tail ot neing very graienii to my feelings, but I will not attempt to conceal from you in how great a degreo that gratification is increased by the consideration that they have been offered by the immediate neighbors and associates of an illustrious friend, with w hose political opinions and public acts.bv far Uie most important of mine have been so closely interwoven, and who above nil other men lias hail Die best means ot judging ol me motives Dy which I have been actuated. In Uio courso of my journey, rendered thus far doubly irratifviiig by tho uniform kindness I have every where received from my fellow-citizens, I havo ilcemcd it most appropriate to mo circumstances under which it is nmdo, the position I occupy, and tho more congenial in my icciuigs, uj i n" discussion of political question. I ennnot I think, deceive mvself in believing, that so fur as regards myself, no 'additional declarations can be necessary to enable my countrymen fully to comprehend the principle by which my public conduct has been invariably governed, anil the objects I hove labored to accomplish. To commiinicnto theso freely to the rtuple has been wim me a iiuvur-iaiiiug inuinuc, u.m allow myself to hope, it is one which has been successfully attained wiUl all who are disiosed to judge mo fnirlv. That bcintr done, I am, as I have nlwaj s been, perfectly content to leave Uie final decision of public opinion in tlio nanus oi uio.se who nevur m in tlio end to render a just and decisive verdict and will content myself with Uio simple assurance, Uiat Uio great principles thus proclaimed and acted upon by mo are unchanged and unchangeable. The nets of those ill whoso hands the power of the Federal Government h is subsequently devolved, and tho con sequences that hire iollowcd, are oeiore tne same grent tribunal, to whoso decision I prefer they should bo submitted without any comments of mine, anxious only that the great benefits nntl blessings so liberally ftin dnsiroil choline tnav be fullv reuf- ized by my fellow-citizens. In tho course I havo thus far pursued, it is my desiro to continue to Uio end of my journey. It cannot however, I mist, oeconsttioreu a ucpnn-nre from Uie lino I have Uuts marked out for myself, should I ombrace Uus occasion to pay a passing tri- bote of iustice. as well as nl allection, to uie illus trious citizen, now enjoying the repose of a well spent life in the bosom of your fertile and beautiful State. To him, more than to any other man living, is owing Uie successful p'ogross and ultimate re-establishment of those rrreat nrinciples by which my administration of Uie Government was directed, and an adherence to which has drawn from you such unqualified approbation. To his integrity, firmness, and persoverance, ioined to a civil couraie equal to that he hns so often ilisnlavod in the field of battle, more than to anv man living, for the maintenance of Uie n itional rights and honor, w ill the people ol uio united otatcs oo liuico. ted for the final overthrow of false, and the norma. nent re-establishment of truo principles ot liberty, based on the durnhle foundation of the Constitution. My own efforts whilo in the Executive chair, were in a great meisuro nirecteo to maintain uio imporv ant positions he occupied on his retirement from public life, and Uie result is known to Uie world. I rcciorocate most cordially and sincerely, gontlo- men, your congratulations on Uio concurring results in ovory quarter of the Union, so clearly indicating Uiat tho Into strilgglo Uiongh apparently successful on tho part of the opponents of our principles, apienr only to have paved tho way for Uieir speedy and en-duirng triumph. Tho people of tho United States nrj a nut not ic and decided in their action, as thoy aresagtcious in observation, and Uie great mass of all parties aim only at Uie gcnoral good. 1 he pndo of opinion and the force of prejudice enn do much. but it is impossible they con long continue to blind them to Uio mischiefs of thoso political orrors, originating in false principles, now so clearly demonstrated in Uie consequence thoy have produced. Experience and reason, those sufe and unerring guides, are now steadily performing Uieir destined work, in producing a quiet revolution, noiseless in its steps nut swift in its progress unaccompanied by any rtiier excitement than Uie warmth of conviction and Uie force of truth. Next to the benefits which must olwnvs and inevit ably result from the triumph of truth over error, will bo tho gratification which evory friend of human rights, and ot thoso who nave Oeen uieir most successful champions, must feel in reflecting thnt it has occurred in the lifctimoof him who first placed himself foremost in Uio contest, and has done most in achieving tho victory; that it occurs while his mental faculties are, as it is my happiness to find them, vet unimpaired by time or disouao; his feelings still iinrlnkimr in all tho warmth and vigor of youth ; his patriotism a ardent as when ho so freely risked hi life in Uio servico of his country, ami liisattnrhment to liberty as strong as when his reputation in its do-fence : Uiat it ha come in soasnn to confirm Uiat generous reliance on Uio virtue anil intelligence of tho neonle which has ever been Uie basis of his po litical creed and course, and to close wiUl feelings of enviablesatislactionalung routine ot public service which will firevor place his name high among Uio most illustrious patriot of past and future times. The public dinner which you have so kindly ten dered to me, you must permit mo to decline. Without in Uie least douhting that there are occasions on which compliments of that character are not only proper but desirable, anil without designing to question the propriety of a different courso when pursued by others, I have through life preferred to meet my friends in tiie less-ceremoninus and more generally acceptable way in which it has been my ImppincM to receivo the greetings, and interchange Iricmlly salutation with the citizens of Nashvillu and its viuui. ty, and which it will afford me pleasure to continue Hh its citizens as long as 1 remain in uie Diuie. Accent uentlemeii. my warmest acknowledgments for the very obliging and kind manner in which you have discharged the duties assigned to vou, and believe me to be Very sincerely, your friend, And ohed't serv't M. VAN BUREN. From the National Intelligencer, May 9. ' RHODE ISLAND. It is gall and wormwood to the Destructive " here and elsewhere," to discover Uiat mere Demagogue-ism, however it may flourish for a time, and even succeed to a certain extent in infecting the Government Uirottgh Uie influence of deceit practised upon the People, can effect nothing when its batteries are levelled direct against the Constitution and Laws, either of Uio United States or of any particular Stnto, as Uiny have lately been in illiodo island. Mob-law may reign for an hour, or for a day, but in due course of time the offenders are sure to bo made to pay the penalty due to Uie off ence of wilfully setting the laws at defiance. Tho proceeding in Rhode Island has been, from the beginning, only an unlawful action of men, disappointed in uiiibitiotts aspirations, seeking to attain, by an overturn of tlio State Government, political elevation, which Uicy have not been able to achieve by fair competition with their fellow-citizens. This mob proceeding is not tho loss, but Uie moro, to be reprobated, because of the formality with which its assault upon Uie Laws has boen conducted. There is evory reason to believe that uiose who nuve uecn most couspicuous actors in it will reap their reward. The iollowing paragraphs, Irom uio rrnvidenco Journal of Friday last contain Uie lutest information wo have from the seat of conflict between established government ar.d the conspirators ngainst it: in which term, be it understood, wo do not include the mass of the people who composo tho suffrage party, but those leaders only who havo deceived them into rebellion : Abbests roB Tbeasok. Dutco J. Pearco was yesterday arrested on a warrant issued by Chief Justice Durfce, on a clmrtre of treason ntraingt the State. He wo held to bail with two sureties, in Uie sum ol 5,000 each.

It is currently rumored Uiat Mr. Dorr, the Suffrage Governor, has left Uie city. Certain it is, Uiat when Daniel Drown, ot whneo arrest me papers win iniurm ou. had been taken, an express was sent to Uus ci ty, and nciUier Mr. Dorr nor Burrington Anthony, the Suffrage Sherriff, have been seen since early Uus morning. Duteo J. l'eorco left for Newport in the s'e imho.it this morning, and won, I learn, arrested immediately on his arrival. It was intended to arrest another of the Representative from Newpoit to-duy. The Government will go steadily on, and will neither turn back nor pause in its career. Mr. Brown was admitted to hail in uie sum ot isi.i.uuu. What courso has been determined upon in regurdto admitting tho others to bail. I do not know. Every Uung is quicc here, ana no mumiesiniions lave been made ol an intention to resist uio execu- tionof Uio laws; but hardly time enough has elapsed since Uie arrest to develops the plan of tho Suffrage party. But few ot their chtet leaders hnve oeen seen in the streets to-day. They may be in conclave. do not believe that Mr. Dorr is Uio man to ttee the State; and I Uiink we ahull soon hear from him. Neither of Uio Justices of the bupromo Court is in town, but Judge Staples is expected here to-dny. As only they would have tho power to decide upon admitting Mr. Dorr to bail, ho will not probably be taken into custody in their absence. Considerable feeling exists on the partof the Suffrage men, and tin only tnlk. The Now York Journal of Commerce publishes the annexed extract of a letter from Providence : It is currently reported in tho city Uiat Gov. Dorr has absconded. At any rate, the sheriff' hna been in pursuit of him the whole day to arrest him, and ho is not to bo found. Dutoe J. l'carco and another nro arrested, and safely lodged in Newmrt jail.

The feeling we share with the community, in this high handed attempt to gng the mouths of every officer of Uie government, is ono of unqualified disgust Mr. Tyler must be a most deluded man if he indulges in the vainest hope of over being enabled in any manner to form a party for himself, lesst of all in one against which the moral senso of tho whole community revolts.

The " Destructives" do not deem it necessary any longer to wear the mask. Thoy aro advancing with open strides to the overthrow of all Banks, and tho adoption of an " exclusive metallic currency." We publishod two or three weeks ago the plan of organization adopted by the Loco Focos of Medina county, and recommended by them to others, with Uie viow of thoroughly uprooting the evil tendencies of Uie credit system, of which banking i the life and soul. The Society which has promulgated the formula by which "new light" doctrinaire shall more efficiently co-operate with each other in tho grand enterprise of reforming Uie world, do not hesitate to declare the system of a mixod currency a "POPULAR ERROR," which hi become " froutesome " and " infol- eraWc." They haveUicTefore, like truo patriots, de termined to unite Hieir efforts to eradicate this " error," and purge the State of Uie noxious andhealth-destroying distempers, which oppress and paralyze the energies of it citizens. In the creed of political faith by them subscribed, Uiey set forth prominently the following pledges: " We hereby pledge ountlm to REFUSE or REJECT in our own business, ALL BANK NOTES, orders or other form of scrip or obligatory writing, either written, printed or engraved,or iie purpose of circul ttion at nuiri,and to use the romlilulioml currency of the country, and NO OTHER," after a given day. "Wo hereby pMte ourselves in NO CASE to VOTE FOR ANY MAN to n seat in my Leginla- tin councils, who is not UNEQUIVOCALLY I'l.KDl, r.l) to use his influence and action nginnsf the creation or eitrmion of AN Y BANK chartir, or any law or instiiulion lo issue paper to circulate as monrif." There is candor and sincerity, a well as boldness in theso declarations, ond wo consider their promulgators an honestcr class of men Uian somo of their confederates, who ore aiming at iniilar ends, but have not tho muulincss to tnuke a distinct avowul of Uieir purposes. I lowcvor, a crisis is ot hand, and Uie peoplo of all parties and ranks will find it necessary to "define their positions "on tho absorbing and paramount question of Uio currency. Concealment will no longer answer. The "anti-Bank" party of Mo-dina county stands confessed. In the south-west part of the State, public attention his been lately drawn to this subject by the proceedings of the meeting at Went Union. The doctrines put forth in Uiat meeting ore as unequivocal in Uieir conception and stylo of promulgation a Uiose with which Uiey contrast so strongly, emanating from Uie opposite school in Medina. The gentlemen who addressed Uio public through Uioso resolutions, begun by acknowledging thoir friendship for a " mil retrnlaled banking system for the Stale i" and they explain Uio loading princi ples upon which it should bo rounded, wlncli strike us as unobjectionable. They Uien proceed to assert wh it it would be hard to deny, and yet what has been denied in effect, viz: "That there is a hard money faction growing up in Ohio, whose doctrines, if carried ou, must be ruinous lo Uie best interests oj me consul- J - - .. i nity ! " This annunciation, bo it observed, is not tno caiit of a politicul cnomy, describing his opponents in a form to enlist popular feeling ngainst a party, body o? men against tnoswho havo been aniTstiU are on all other subjects their friends. 1 hey aro not Whiga, giving evidenco against their adversaries, and using the license which custom prescribes, to speak figuratively of the party whose principle Uiey seek to render unacceptable to Uio people, but they aro Van Huron men themselves, of high ond unim- pcachod standing among their associates, who utter this warning to all good citizens and patriot who thus ssoverate their knowledgo of Uie existence ot this "faction " among us, and admonish us of the consequences which must ensue, if their "doctrine are carried out" Thoy further adviso Uieir fellow-citizens, that although "but few of tho mhoeales of an exclusin hard momy currency havo tho boldness and candor to come out openly ond avow their doc trines, (as in tho cno ot the anti-Hank men oi Medina) "yet that they arc steadily pursuing their object, and preparing for a lerrr of extermination upon all paper currency." And those gentlemen concumo wiui tho rcmarkahlo observotton, "that it is sign lime Jor the people to lake their affairs into their urn hamls ! " a truth which ought to create a pmtoiinn sensatton throughout Uie State, and command Uio assent of ovory man who wishes well for Uio future. We hove thus shown, that there arc two parties in Uio old party inimical to the Whiga. One is vow- ctlly hostile to paper money in any shape, and is pledged to pursue such measures in their business intercourse wiUl their neighbors and fellow-citizen, and a freemen in their action through Uio ballot boxes, a shall tend to suppress tho evil of which Uiey complain ; and the other ho equally committed itself " in favor of a ound bnnking system for Uio State of Ohio," Doubtless, to the ono or tho other of these new divisions, tho masses of tho main body are disposed to incline. Indeed we have daily evi-deneo that a reorganization of tho old mntennls of Uio Van Buren party is in progress, and that Uie sen-nrato standard of Uie rival division, aro receiving declarations of adherctico and allegiance from different quarters, which provo that both arc sensible that it is lime to understand each other. We havo endeavored to keep our reader apprised of Uie development which are going on around us, and shall continue to do o. Thut far, however, tho principal scene of anion is in the south-west part of the Slate. The West Union manifesto is the Uteuio of general discussion, and Uie old friends and associates of Uio projector of that movement are taking ground for and against Uieir measure, of a "sound system of bonking.'' Soveral meetings havo been called, In consider tho subject of a new banking ayatein, and tho proceedings of two aro before us. In ono of these, held at Sugar Tree Ridge, Highland county, Gen. McDowell made a speech, and sustained Uio plan of a Sinking system which had been published in the Hillsborough Caztlle, and which has been copied into this paper. Two other gentlemen also expressed their sentiments on the subject, which were coincident with Uiose entertained by Gen. McDowell. Afterwards it wa unanimously " Retoletd. That this meeting approve of the view advanced byGea McDowell on Uio subject of a safe llanktng system for tne .Nuic. This resolution is sulHciontly definite in favor of a Bank, but it is accouinnicd by several others, which givo a dubious complexion to Uio character of the meeting. The doctded expression, however, in fit. vor of llankipg, is very much gained. nut wo havo an entry to make on tho oppnaito aido of Uio legor. The antagonist of "all par circula tion," referred to in Mr. 1 lamer s Resolutions, have had a meeting in Clermont ccs, anil have put forth eric of resolutions, in favor of tho "doctrines," which, "if carried out will bo niinou to Uie best in terest of Uio community, esjiecially to the whole debtor clans, who will bo crushed by a policy so fatal anil destructive." We rlue this article by appending to what wo have said, some of theso resolutions, which will go far to provo Mr. Hamer in tho right, when he asserted tho existence of a "Hard Money faction," in Uio State, The resolutions, when considered in connexion with Uie Medina county proceeding, will furnish an index to the sentiments and principles which must becomo prominent topic of discussion before the next election campaign is over. RESOLUTIONS adopted oi a'Dmimticmatinx; t'n Tale, Clermont county, Jtpril 30, Thomas Jones in the Chair, and Johm fcrguson. Secretary. "Resolved, That Uie experience of the world for the last century and a half, should satisfy the most visionary Uiat no system of banking can fumish a paper currency, and bo "safe, sound, and perpetually spe-1 ci paying, for all have been tried, AND ALL HAVE f Atl-itU. Resolved, That Uie policy of Ohio should be, to create no new banks to try no untried experiments to renew no old charters to stead ly pursue her course in restraining; the abuses of existing banks to ex- cludo Uie smaller denomination of bunk notes from circulation, and speedily restore a currency of gold and silver for all the ordinary purpose of business, leaving the larger notes and commercial bills for commercial purpose. Resolved, That it is FOLLY TO ATTEMPT TO CKEATE A NEW SYSTEM OF BANKING IN OHIO, where it is known, that neither the State nor individuals can command Uio specie on which to base it and at a time when more than twelve millisns of churtcred bank capital cummands but half a million of specie, and furnishes but about Uiree-fourUis of a million of paper circulation. Resolved, That so fur from a "hard money faction" endangering us by an 'exclusively metallic currency,' Uie tendency in Uiis, as in most other countries, is to build up incorporated aristocracies and privileged orders, to the extcrmiution of the precious metals as a circulating medium, and tho substitution of an exclusive spurious currency. Resolved, That tho assertion, Uiat there is not specie enough for Uie purposes of commerce, is a absurd as Unit there is not iron enough for the purposes to which it is applied, as the following data, furnished by tho ablest writers and statesman of the age, obun-duntly show : That in Europe and America there is Bpecio to tho value of four thousand five hundred millions of dollars that but from one-third to two-tilths of this is coined that the share of Uiis sum for tho United States could not be less than two hundred and filly millions the shureof Ohio would botwenty-four millions, ond near Uiirty fold the sum of bunk paper now furnished by the banks of Uie State ond further, that the mines of Uie world yield annually thirty-five millions more. Resolved, That with these indisputable data before us, Uio cant of bunkers, brokers, and demagogues, about "hard money," "lo prices," ond "ruin to the whole di'btor class," has no lerror for us ; but we are the moro firmly resolved on pursuing Uie democratic wlicy, of lopping off Uie evils of the banking system excluding small notes from circulaUon holding bankers lo rigid resinsibility, and restoring mid am silver lo circulation lor au me common pur poses of business.71 TIIE TURNING OF THE SCREWS. It was predicted by our excellent friend of the McConnellsville Standard, sometime since, that when the additional pressure, necessarily produced by Uie efforts of the banks to save Uiemsclvos from Uio consequence of Loco Foco legislation, was felt, that Uie very mcu who had been most active in the instigation of stringent measure, would be Uie first and loudest to raise an outcry against the "Iran of the Hank trreirs." We have already witnessed symptoms of this disjiosition on the part of Uie Statesman, in its whining tone on Uie subject of the violation of Uie resumption law by some of the banks of this SMet in issuing and refusing to redeem Post Notes; hut the time has not yet come, probably, for that paper to open full mouthed in Uiat direction. There aro not wanting, however, evidences, Uiat a we approach the election, one of Uio means to be used to inflame the popular fueling against what little Uicre is left of Hanks, will he to charge Uiem with a contraction ot their circulation, and thus impute to their agency the distress and ruin which is carrying grief and desola tion through the lund. The game has already been commenced by the Loco Foco. orawnot our neigh bors of Jiuliiimrttic-crowiiig Chapman," Irom wnose paper of the llith inst wo extract Uio following arti cle. - - - From the Indianapolis state Hcnunel.j "Taw Bt -The dneronHO or ttie circu- iMwm-trf trrrtrrrro-mrrtw m riiurnnd March lost as officially exhibited by the Stnte Auditor, amounts to tiro millions, three hundred an t twenty thousand, four hundred and sixty-seven dollars, and eighteen cents. The circulation of pur State Bank has been curtailed during Uio same period in about the same ratio; and the notes of the Illinois State Bank are entirely out of credit. The benutie it bunking are hero forcibly exhibited. Can any aodv lonirer wonder about the cause of Hard Times. or the senrcity of money ?" In this State, likewiac, Una course of clamor and complaint begins to find vent The following resolution, adopted at a Loco Foco meeting in Clermont co. is published in the lairt Statesman. Resolved, That much of the pecuniary distress in this State is attributable to the expansion and con- trartioa of the Banks, by inflating tho currency to near nine inmion and again comrncdrig it to lessuian one million of dollars." Thi i just what was predicted. In due time, Uie Statesman will chime in. Those who are bent upon evil designs ore never in want of pretext to lend a seeming color to their act. "How dare you," said the Wolf to the Lamb, " drink where the water drip from your dirty mouth, and muddle Uie stream as it run downs to me?" "That can't be," replied Uie 1 jinh, meekly, "because Uie current flow from you to me." "Nevertheless," exclaimed tho lover of mutton, you havo had the insolcncoto drink out of Uie same stream I had reserved for myself;" and thereupon he tore tho unoffending animal to piece and made a feast un hi flesh. So with Uie Lxo Focos and tho Bank. When these instilitutionscirctilatcd Uieir paper up to near the amount allowed by law, end re- ipiircd by the business want of Uie community, Uien a trcnieiiduiia clamor wo got up about an M inflated cerrency," " bubbles," "speculations," "high prices,' & c, cV, A long series of persecutions having resulted in Uie withdrawal of Bank paper from circulation and Uio closing up of Uie institutions Uiemselvc, Uie banks are still the cause of Uio " pecuniary distress," in the eyes of these jaundiced judges, and it is le gitimate gamo to persist in pointing thorn out a Uie desorving object of popular hatred and odium. How convenient it i lor tiioae reckless donuv giigues, who care not what Injurio are inflicted upon Uio State, provided they can secure Uie litllo petty office, with alaric of a few score, or a few hundreds of dollars, to have Uiis cur rency question to agitate,by which, first and last. the people have been plun lored of million, for their benefit And how happily the system of agitation, itself, i mado to work. IM Uie pendulum vi brate eithor way, and some wrong may bo imputed to Uio Bitiks, Is money plenty ? Then the currency is "inflated," and all the mock patriots in the land are vociferous in their denunciation of a stato of things iiot i undermining Uie public morals and laying Uie train for an explosion Uiat is to scatter ruin through all our border! Have the Bank by the ignorant or wonton legislation of Uiese samo carping financier. and tinkers, been laid prostrate, and compelled mainly to discontinue Uieir operations, ond prepare for wind ing up? Then It is Uiat Uio "Bulk screws" are applied! "Rehold Uie beauties of bonking," exclaim tho destructive. "At their trick again first ex panding, and now contracting Uio currency !" And so they wisely resolve, in accordance with Uieir"foro- gono conclusions" to wago war of extermination against tho Banks, that tho oximrimrnt of paper mon cy and credit is immoral and ruinous, and has en tirely failed. It why such a courso of shallow deceptions as this, Uiat tho destructive Will hope and mean to impose upon the people. PcrhaM they have guaged Uio public intelligence more accurately than wo have, and aro warranted by tho certainty of aucccss, in pursuing their object by these unhallowed means. Surely Iho peoplo have no right to complain of "hard times," or the "scarcity of money" for ordinary busi-ness transactions, so long as they continue to bestow thoir confidence upon men who are governed by no honest principle, hut who like tho wretch who would get a man drunk and then steal his purse, are not ashamed to fan Uio otnbors uf an oxeitcmenl that is consuming the prosperity nd well-being of Uio State. The people must abandon these false teacher and selfish leaders, and place their confidence in men, whoso fore-knowledge of the event and the evil which afflict us, wuuld, hall they pmwVsmtl tiie puwviri have led to Uie adoption of measures that would have savod us from Uie consequences now experienced When Uiey do that a ennrure may be looked for BUT NEVER UNTIL THEN.

Dorr, it will bo een, instead of standing an arrest, and giving security for appearance before the tribunals of the legal government, has most magnanimously left hi coadjutors in the lurch, and taken leg bail for his own safety.

Of tlio former Uieir is not Uie slightest danger. A cooler or a more determined peoplo do not exist on tho earth. Tho least symptoms of faltering now, would lead to consequencos of a fearful churucter. On the whole uiero is no reason to doubt that law and order will prevail, and disorganization and rebellion be crushed. The principal ring-leaders in this atrocious movement have mostly tied, or at least avoid Uie processes that were issued against Uicm. Iho magnificent Mr. Jforr is probably in your city to-day, on his way to Washington. Mr. Pearce is also believed to be on his way to somewhere.

Wo were willing to believe the assertions of the political friends of Mr. Van Buren, Uiat in his journey to the South and West, he had no other object in view than a visit to his old friend, General Jackson, in whoso " foot steps " he deemed it so much glory to tread, when a confiding people placed in hi hands Uio helm of State. The more, however, we look into his movements, and those of his friends, Uio more we are convinced, Uiat although the gratification of private friendship is tho ostensible, the real uhject is, to feel his way, and judge for himself what are his chances for a second Presidential term, to which he has been already nominated by portion of lus friends. Every movement indicates it with ul hi ingenuity hi object cannot bo concealed.

THURSDAY EVENING, MAY 12, 1842. FAMILY GOVERNMENT. Unwilling to disturb the kindly feelings all along cherished by many of the prominent men of tlio Whig party in Ohio, towards M r. Tyler, we have in a great ntooeure suppressed the indignation which the details of his administration am so well calculated to excite. But the continued exhibition of weakness, hypocrisy and a profligate bestowal of government patronage, has, we feel conscious, moro effectually impressed the public mind with the odiousnesa of the present Executive rule, titan any view which wo could have presented in anticipation. All that is now necessary, to render the public opinion perfectly sound in regard to Mr. Tyler, is information of the real character of his acts. The sway of Mr. Tyler hero in Ohio, is more to he deprecated than any tiling ever before fastened upon us. Little did the founders of our State think, wlton they were responding to the loud and hearty amen to the denunciations contained in the Declaration of 1776, against a British King, '(fur sending hither awanns of officers among us to eat out the substance" of tho American people, that in little more than half a century, one of our own citizens filling the office of President, would commit, if possible, a greater outrago on the feelings of freemen. But such is the fact. Bo far as the Exocutive government of (he Union prevails in this Stato, it is a most heartless despotism f more resembling that of the Turk governing through the instrumentality of a body of Jamznries, titan a government of public opinion. Strange as it moy appear to some at a distance, two brothers-in-law of John Tyler, wield the the whole power of the federal government in Ohio. One is at the head of the Post Office in this city, surrounded by an official coterie of imported rela tions and family friends of the President and himself ; and the other is the editor of a newspaper, recently set up by tho family for tho express purpose of writing down Whip; principles. We Sieak advisedly when we say, that this pnper was established to make war upon Whig principles and prominent Whig Statoatnnn, at a time when many of those men were apparently in Mr. Tyler's confidence, and before there was any broach between him and them. We know that negociations at that early dny were set on foot, to get an editor to perform this fratricidul work; and that on fuiluro to procure a suitablo instrument, one of the worthy brothers-in-law himself undertook the task. And such is now tho situation of affairs in this State, thiit these two men, who, if public opinion was left to opcrato unaided by the factitious influence of Executive unction, would be of no moro account than a brace of lecturers on Animal Magnetism, ex. ercise pro-consular powers over the interests, predilections and want, of a million and half of freemen.No man is daring enough to aspire to public place without thoir permission, and none can long retain office, without propitiating their favor. As a specimen of their insolent conduct, we will mention a cose of recent occurrence. A few weeks since, Dr. Mailer, one of the ostensible editors of Mr. Tyler's paper here, mado a rapid tour to the Northeastern part of tho Stato, for tho professed pur pose of procuring subscriptions ; and grant were tlic boasts of his success. Tuts was the business assigned to tho public, but wo have reason to know or believe, that a rigid survcillanco of the Post Offices, was the mincinnl object of the visitation. That he was faith ful to his trust, is not to bo questioned. All the in cidents connecter! with this famous expedition con scarce yet have seen the light How many Post Mastors were threatened with tho loss ot Uieir places, if they did not oxcrt thctnsclvos to further the object of Mr. Tyler's emissary, or how many of the new subscribers were obtained by means thus used, can perhaps never be known. But one fact has transpired which will servo to open up the clandcslino objects of this remarkable mission. Whilst at Massillop, Stark co this government spent and stipendiary made the acquaintance of a irentlcman who was noth ing loth to become a Post Muster; and who to prove his worth and qualifications conducted Dr. Ai. through tho town and aided him in begging support fur his press. This was but civil to a strangor; but let us see the sequel. In just about the time requisite fur a letter to be conveyed horo and have one transmitted hence to Washington, and back again to Mnssil-lon, the Post Master of tint place, a well tried and rmrsovoring Whig, got his discharge ; and this master of ceremonies ; this caterer for tho Old School Republican; this supple-jack who so obsequiously bowed Dr. Mtt'llor through tho streets of Mnssillnn, was inducted into the place thus made vacant Thus ended a profitable job ; light work, and good as well prompt pay for a half day's service, and promiso of fealty to John Tyler. How much information was obtained, on this tour and anothor which succeeded it into the Western part of tho State, by which other removals and promotions may bo guided, we cannot be presumed to have any present means of knowledge.It was but tho other day tint the Madiaonian, the well-fed organ of tho President at Washington, very emphatically hinted that it might be well for Prut Masters to enlist in its support, or prepare to walk the plnnk. The same svstetn of discipline and accountability is to be established in the States, and here they re given to understand by the course of removals and appointments, that they must sustain all the branches of the family and their adherents; and hero-after when one of tho Arm, a distant connexion or cntor-cousin shall pan through tho country, every village Post Master will be expected to present himself to tho representative of authority with all the becoming submission of a Russian serf. And this i. the wsv Mr. Tvler carries out the famous procla mation of his determination to keep the atroiiago of the government Irom iiucricring wiui uie iree course of public opiiiion. RHODE ISLAND. Affiiini now appear to bo approaching a crisis in this State. Tho Agitators have proceeded so far as to incur the responsibility which their acta have in' volved from Uie beginning, and the proper authorities are now actively engaged in holding them to it We trust there will ho no flinching. We hope the leaden) will he made, every man of tliein, to atone for their crimes, in the cells of the Penitentiary. If blood should chance to flow, of which howevor, tlio danger is not great let tlio murderers swing. It seems that tho recreinl Dorr, who boasted of his willingness to consummate his treasonable designs, by passing over (As dmd My of Ail oint father, has coine up among the missing. This is usually the way with braggarts of his stamp they are apt to prove poltroons, and after having committod others to ofleu-eea against tlio peace of society, to be tho first to look for tlio means of oscaie. Wa perceive in somo of Uie accounts, that one of Dorr's acts, whilst Governor, was to issue a proclamation to collectors and others, commanding them to pny over the public monies into his hands. Dorr might have got prolty well paid for his patriotism, if he had been loll unmolested awhile, until ho could have got the public Treasury into his possession. He might havo sloped for Texas, and been there enabled to enter upon a still more prominent career by engaging in an expedition for tho plunder of Christian churches in Mexico. He is more like now to acquire the ertiali-eal accomplishment of hewing stone, under tho masters of that art, in one of tho publio institutions in the Rtato. Doubtless when he take hi degree, he will ba better qualified to discharge tho duties of a good ciUicu. NO BUSINESS OP OURS. If we had been charged with stealing had pros ecuted the author of the declaration for damages and had been turned oif by a jury of twelve men, with the paltry verdict of thru hundred and eighty- seven dollart and fifty unit, we would'nt trouble any body to recollect the circumstances. We should nt feel like " croitririg." We would be willing to let tho matter sleep. The public, for aught wo should be guilty of doing, would be allowed to forget tuch a vindication of one's reputation. The Statesman will of course do as it likes under similar circumstances! Perhaps the friends of the editor were gratified to find that he had any character at all, If so, a littlo bluster will not be surprising, howevor it may argue the want of prudence and sense.

On the occasion of Mr. Van Buren's arrival at the Hermitage, a committee of his late supporters for tho Presidency in 1810, of Davidson county, Tennessee, waited upon him with a letter, expressive of their feelings towards him as a public man, and containing an invitation to a Public Dinner on behalf of the citizens of Nashville and vicinity. The letter of tho committee contains tho following allusions to political matters : " In conveying to vou this invitation, allow us to assure you that it is offered by a largo, intelligent and respectable portion of our community, who look with pride upon your public course, and will always hail you as tho consistent, uniform and able advocate of the doctrines of the Republican party. Especially during your administration of the General Government have thev scanned vour actions and they re joice at the evidence which they afford of an integ rity tliat is unsjioitco, ana oi a nnnnoss anu ucvoteu-ness to constitutional duty that will ever command the admiration of the country. " We contrrutulute you, sir, on their belialt, thnt although the party adverse to the principles on which fou administered the government succeeded in tlio ate presidential election, nothing yet has occurred to impair the force of those principles, or to show that tiie great mass of tlio people will not again rally to their support as soon as they see fully developed the consequences resulting from a departure from them."

In Uio courso of my journey, rendered thus far doubly irratifviiig by tho uniform kindness I have every where received from my fellow-citizens, I havo ilcemcd it most appropriate to mo circumstances under which it is nmdo, the position I occupy, and tho more congenial in my icciuigs, uj i n" discussion of political question. I ennnot I think, deceive mvself in believing, that so fur as regards myself, no 'additional declarations can be necessary to enable my countrymen fully to comprehend the principle by which my public conduct has been invariably governed, anil the objects I hove labored to accomplish.

The nets of those ill whoso hands the power of the Federal Government h is subsequently devolved, and tho con sequences that hire iollowcd, are oeiore tne same grent tribunal, to whoso decision I prefer they should bo submitted without any comments of mine, anxious only that the great benefits nntl blessings so liberally ftin dnsiroil choline tnav be fullv reuf- ized by my fellow-citizens. In tho course I havo thus far pursued, it is my desiro to continue to Uio end of my journey.

It is gall and wormwood to the Destructive " here and elsewhere," to discover Uiat mere Demagogue-ism, however it may flourish for a time, and even succeed to a certain extent in infecting the Government Uirottgh Uie influence of deceit practised upon the People, can effect nothing when its batteries are levelled direct against the Constitution and Laws, either of Uio United States or of any particular Stnto, as Uiny have lately been in illiodo island. Mob-law may reign for an hour, or for a day, but in due course of time the offenders are sure to bo made to pay the penalty due to Uie off ence of wilfully setting the laws at defiance. Tho proceeding in Rhode Island has been, from the beginning, only an unlawful action of men, disappointed in uiiibitiotts aspirations, seeking to attain, by an overturn of tlio State Government, political elevation, which Uicy have not been able to achieve by fair competition with their fellow-citizens. This mob proceeding is not tho loss, but Uie moro, to be reprobated, because of the formality with which its assault upon Uie Laws has boen conducted. There is evory reason to believe that uiose who nuve uecn most couspicuous actors in it will reap their reward.

Neither of Uio Justices of the bupromo Court is in town, but Judge Staples is expected here to-dny. As only they would have tho power to decide upon admitting Mr. Dorr to bail, ho will not probably be taken into custody in their absence. Considerable feeling exists on the partof the Suffrage men, and tin only tnlk.

The " Destructives" do not deem it necessary any longer to wear the mask. Thoy aro advancing with open strides to the overthrow of all Banks, and tho adoption of an " exclusive metallic currency." We publishod two or three weeks ago the plan of organization adopted by the Loco Focos of Medina county, and recommended by them to others, with Uie viow of thoroughly uprooting the evil tendencies of Uie credit system, of which banking i the life and soul. The Society which has promulgated the formula by which "new light" doctrinaire shall more efficiently co-operate with each other in tho grand enterprise of reforming Uie world, do not hesitate to declare the system of a mixod currency a "POPULAR ERROR," which hi become " froutesome " and " infol- eraWc." They haveUicTefore, like truo patriots, de termined to unite Hieir efforts to eradicate this " error," and purge the State of Uie noxious andhealth-destroying distempers, which oppress and paralyze the energies of it citizens. In the creed of political faith by them subscribed, Uiey set forth prominently the following pledges: " We hereby pledge ountlm to REFUSE or REJECT in our own business, ALL BANK NOTES, orders or other form of scrip or obligatory writing, either written, printed or engraved,or iie purpose of circul ttion at nuiri,and to use the romlilulioml currency of the country, and NO OTHER," after a given day. "Wo hereby pMte ourselves in NO CASE to VOTE FOR ANY MAN to n seat in my Leginla- tin councils, who is not UNEQUIVOCALLY I'l.KDl, r.l) to use his influence and action nginnsf the creation or eitrmion of AN Y BANK chartir, or any law or instiiulion lo issue paper to circulate as monrif." There is candor and sincerity, a well as boldness in theso declarations, ond wo consider their promulgators an honestcr class of men Uian somo of their confederates, who ore aiming at iniilar ends, but have not tho muulincss to tnuke a distinct avowul of Uieir purposes. I lowcvor, a crisis is ot hand, and Uie peoplo of all parties and ranks will find it necessary to "define their positions "on tho absorbing and paramount question of Uio currency. Concealment will no longer answer. The "anti-Bank" party of Mo-dina county stands confessed. In the south-west part of the State, public attention his been lately drawn to this subject by the proceedings of the meeting at Went Union. The doctrines put forth in Uiat meeting ore as unequivocal in Uieir conception and stylo of promulgation a Uiose with which Uiey contrast so strongly, emanating from Uie opposite school in Medina. The gentlemen who addressed Uio public through Uioso resolutions, begun by acknowledging thoir friendship for a " mil retrnlaled banking system for the Stale i" and they explain Uio loading princi ples upon which it should bo rounded, wlncli strike us as unobjectionable. They Uien proceed to assert wh it it would be hard to deny, and yet what has been denied in effect, viz: "That there is a hard money faction growing up in Ohio, whose doctrines, if carried ou, must be ruinous lo Uie best interests oj me consul- J - - .. i nity ! " This annunciation, bo it observed, is not tno caiit of a politicul cnomy, describing his opponents in a form to enlist popular feeling ngainst a party, body o? men against tnoswho havo been aniTstiU are on all other subjects their friends. 1 hey aro not Whiga, giving evidenco against their adversaries, and using the license which custom prescribes, to speak figuratively of the party whose principle Uiey seek to render unacceptable to Uio people, but they aro Van Huron men themselves, of high ond unim- pcachod standing among their associates, who utter this warning to all good citizens and patriot who thus ssoverate their knowledgo of Uie existence ot this "faction " among us, and admonish us of the consequences which must ensue, if their "doctrine are carried out" Thoy further adviso Uieir fellow-citizens, that although "but few of tho mhoeales of an exclusin hard momy currency havo tho boldness and candor to come out openly ond avow their doc trines, (as in tho cno ot the anti-Hank men oi Medina) "yet that they arc steadily pursuing their object, and preparing for a lerrr of extermination upon all paper currency." And those gentlemen concumo wiui tho rcmarkahlo observotton, "that it is sign lime Jor the people to lake their affairs into their urn hamls ! " a truth which ought to create a pmtoiinn sensatton throughout Uie State, and command Uio assent of ovory man who wishes well for Uio future. We hove thus shown, that there arc two parties in Uio old party inimical to the Whiga. One is vow- ctlly hostile to paper money in any shape, and is pledged to pursue such measures in their business intercourse wiUl their neighbors and fellow-citizen, and a freemen in their action through Uio ballot boxes, a shall tend to suppress tho evil of which Uiey complain ; and the other ho equally committed itself " in favor of a ound bnnking system for Uio State of Ohio," Doubtless, to the ono or tho other of these new divisions, tho masses of tho main body are disposed to incline. Indeed we have daily evi-deneo that a reorganization of tho old mntennls of Uio Van Buren party is in progress, and that Uie sen-nrato standard of Uie rival division, aro receiving declarations of adherctico and allegiance from different quarters, which provo that both arc sensible that it is lime to understand each other. We havo endeavored to keep our reader apprised of Uie development which are going on around us, and shall continue to do o. Thut far, however, tho principal scene of anion is in the south-west part of the Slate. The West Union manifesto is the Uteuio of general discussion, and Uie old friends and associates of Uio projector of that movement are taking ground for and against Uieir measure, of a "sound system of bonking.'' Soveral meetings havo been called, In consider tho subject of a new banking ayatein, and tho proceedings of two aro before us. In ono of these, held at Sugar Tree Ridge, Highland county, Gen. McDowell made a speech, and sustained Uio plan of a Sinking system which had been published in the Hillsborough Caztlle, and which has been copied into this paper. Two other gentlemen also expressed their sentiments on the subject, which were coincident with Uiose entertained by Gen. McDowell. Afterwards it wa unanimously " Retoletd. That this meeting approve of the view advanced byGea McDowell on Uio subject of a safe llanktng system for tne .Nuic. This resolution is sulHciontly definite in favor of a Bank, but it is accouinnicd by several others, which givo a dubious complexion to Uio character of the meeting. The doctded expression, however, in fit. vor of llankipg, is very much gained. nut wo havo an entry to make on tho oppnaito aido of Uio legor. The antagonist of "all par circula tion," referred to in Mr. 1 lamer s Resolutions, have had a meeting in Clermont ccs, anil have put forth eric of resolutions, in favor of tho "doctrines," which, "if carried out will bo niinou to Uie best in terest of Uio community, esjiecially to the whole debtor clans, who will bo crushed by a policy so fatal anil destructive." We rlue this article by appending to what wo have said, some of theso resolutions, which will go far to provo Mr. Hamer in tho right, when he asserted tho existence of a "Hard Money faction," in Uio State, The resolutions, when considered in connexion with Uie Medina county proceeding, will furnish an index to the sentiments and principles which must becomo prominent topic of discussion before the next election campaign is over. RESOLUTIONS adopted oi a'Dmimticmatinx; t'n Tale, Clermont county, Jtpril 30, Thomas Jones in the Chair, and Johm fcrguson. Secretary. "Resolved, That Uie experience of the world for the last century and a half, should satisfy the most visionary Uiat no system of banking can fumish a paper currency, and bo "safe, sound, and perpetually spe-1 ci paying, for all have been tried, AND ALL HAVE f Atl-itU. Resolved, That Uie policy of Ohio should be, to create no new banks to try no untried experiments to renew no old charters to stead ly pursue her course in restraining; the abuses of existing banks to ex- cludo Uie smaller denomination of bunk notes from circulation, and speedily restore a currency of gold and silver for all the ordinary purpose of business, leaving the larger notes and commercial bills for commercial purpose. Resolved, That it is FOLLY TO ATTEMPT TO CKEATE A NEW SYSTEM OF BANKING IN OHIO, where it is known, that neither the State nor individuals can command Uio specie on which to base it and at a time when more than twelve millisns of churtcred bank capital cummands but half a million of specie, and furnishes but about Uiree-fourUis of a million of paper circulation. Resolved, That so fur from a "hard money faction" endangering us by an 'exclusively metallic currency,' Uie tendency in Uiis, as in most other countries, is to build up incorporated aristocracies and privileged orders, to the extcrmiution of the precious metals as a circulating medium, and tho substitution of an exclusive spurious currency. Resolved, That tho assertion, Uiat there is not specie enough for Uie purposes of commerce, is a absurd as Unit there is not iron enough for the purposes to which it is applied, as the following data, furnished by tho ablest writers and statesman of the age, obun-duntly show : That in Europe and America there is Bpecio to tho value of four thousand five hundred millions of dollars that but from one-third to two-tilths of this is coined that the share of Uiis sum for tho United States could not be less than two hundred and filly millions the shureof Ohio would botwenty-four millions, ond near Uiirty fold the sum of bunk paper now furnished by the banks of Uie State ond further, that the mines of Uie world yield annually thirty-five millions more. Resolved, That with these indisputable data before us, Uio cant of bunkers, brokers, and demagogues, about "hard money," "lo prices," ond "ruin to the whole di'btor class," has no lerror for us ; but we are the moro firmly resolved on pursuing Uie democratic wlicy, of lopping off Uie evils of the banking system excluding small notes from circulaUon holding bankers lo rigid resinsibility, and restoring mid am silver lo circulation lor au me common pur poses of business.71 TIIE TURNING OF THE SCREWS. It was predicted by our excellent friend of the McConnellsville Standard, sometime since, that when the additional pressure, necessarily produced by Uie efforts of the banks to save Uiemsclvos from Uio consequence of Loco Foco legislation, was felt, that Uie very mcu who had been most active in the instigation of stringent measure, would be Uie first and loudest to raise an outcry against the "Iran of the Hank trreirs." We have already witnessed symptoms of this disjiosition on the part of Uie Statesman, in its whining tone on Uie subject of the violation of Uie resumption law by some of the banks of this SMet in issuing and refusing to redeem Post Notes; hut the time has not yet come, probably, for that paper to open full mouthed in Uiat direction. There aro not wanting, however, evidences, Uiat a we approach the election, one of Uio means to be used to inflame the popular fueling against what little Uicre is left of Hanks, will he to charge Uiem with a contraction ot their circulation, and thus impute to their agency the distress and ruin which is carrying grief and desola tion through the lund. The game has already been commenced by the Loco Foco. orawnot our neigh bors of Jiuliiimrttic-crowiiig Chapman," Irom wnose paper of the llith inst wo extract Uio following arti cle. - - - From the Indianapolis state Hcnunel.j "Taw Bt -The dneronHO or ttie circu- iMwm-trf trrrtrrrro-mrrtw m riiurnnd March lost as officially exhibited by the Stnte Auditor, amounts to tiro millions, three hundred an t twenty thousand, four hundred and sixty-seven dollars, and eighteen cents. The circulation of pur State Bank has been curtailed during Uio same period in about the same ratio; and the notes of the Illinois State Bank are entirely out of credit. The benutie it bunking are hero forcibly exhibited. Can any aodv lonirer wonder about the cause of Hard Times. or the senrcity of money ?" In this State, likewiac, Una course of clamor and complaint begins to find vent The following resolution, adopted at a Loco Foco meeting in Clermont co. is published in the lairt Statesman. Resolved, That much of the pecuniary distress in this State is attributable to the expansion and con- trartioa of the Banks, by inflating tho currency to near nine inmion and again comrncdrig it to lessuian one million of dollars." Thi i just what was predicted. In due time, Uie Statesman will chime in. Those who are bent upon evil designs ore never in want of pretext to lend a seeming color to their act. "How dare you," said the Wolf to the Lamb, " drink where the water drip from your dirty mouth, and muddle Uie stream as it run downs to me?" "That can't be," replied Uie 1 jinh, meekly, "because Uie current flow from you to me." "Nevertheless," exclaimed tho lover of mutton, you havo had the insolcncoto drink out of Uie same stream I had reserved for myself;" and thereupon he tore tho unoffending animal to piece and made a feast un hi flesh. So with Uie Lxo Focos and tho Bank. When these instilitutionscirctilatcd Uieir paper up to near the amount allowed by law, end re- ipiircd by the business want of Uie community, Uien a trcnieiiduiia clamor wo got up about an M inflated cerrency," " bubbles," "speculations," "high prices,' & c, cV, A long series of persecutions having resulted in Uie withdrawal of Bank paper from circulation and Uio closing up of Uie institutions Uiemselvc, Uie banks are still the cause of Uio " pecuniary distress," in the eyes of these jaundiced judges, and it is le gitimate gamo to persist in pointing thorn out a Uie desorving object of popular hatred and odium. How convenient it i lor tiioae reckless donuv giigues, who care not what Injurio are inflicted upon Uio State, provided they can secure Uie litllo petty office, with alaric of a few score, or a few hundreds of dollars, to have Uiis cur rency question to agitate,by which, first and last. the people have been plun lored of million, for their benefit And how happily the system of agitation, itself, i mado to work. IM Uie pendulum vi brate eithor way, and some wrong may bo imputed to Uio Bitiks, Is money plenty ? Then the currency is "inflated," and all the mock patriots in the land are vociferous in their denunciation of a stato of things iiot i undermining Uie public morals and laying Uie train for an explosion Uiat is to scatter ruin through all our border! Have the Bank by the ignorant or wonton legislation of Uiese samo carping financier. and tinkers, been laid prostrate, and compelled mainly to discontinue Uieir operations, ond prepare for wind ing up? Then It is Uiat Uio "Bulk screws" are applied! "Rehold Uie beauties of bonking," exclaim tho destructive. "At their trick again first ex panding, and now contracting Uio currency !" And so they wisely resolve, in accordance with Uieir"foro- gono conclusions" to wago war of extermination against tho Banks, that tho oximrimrnt of paper mon cy and credit is immoral and ruinous, and has en tirely failed. It why such a courso of shallow deceptions as this, Uiat tho destructive Will hope and mean to impose upon the people. PcrhaM they have guaged Uio public intelligence more accurately than wo have, and aro warranted by tho certainty of aucccss, in pursuing their object by these unhallowed means. Surely Iho peoplo have no right to complain of "hard times," or the "scarcity of money" for ordinary busi-ness transactions, so long as they continue to bestow thoir confidence upon men who are governed by no honest principle, hut who like tho wretch who would get a man drunk and then steal his purse, are not ashamed to fan Uio otnbors uf an oxeitcmenl that is consuming the prosperity nd well-being of Uio State. The people must abandon these false teacher and selfish leaders, and place their confidence in men, whoso fore-knowledge of the event and the evil which afflict us, wuuld, hall they pmwVsmtl tiie puwviri have led to Uie adoption of measures that would have savod us from Uie consequences now experienced When Uiey do that a ennrure may be looked for BUT NEVER UNTIL THEN.

Of tlio former Uieir is not Uie slightest danger. A cooler or a more determined peoplo do not exist on tho earth. Tho least symptoms of faltering now, would lead to consequencos of a fearful churucter. On the whole uiero is no reason to doubt that law and order will prevail, and disorganization and rebellion be crushed. The principal ring-leaders in this atrocious movement have mostly tied, or at least avoid Uie processes that were issued against Uicm. Iho magnificent Mr. Jforr is probably in your city to-day, on his way to Washington. Mr. Pearce is also believed to be on his way to somewhere. There i a deplorable mate ot tilings in Kliodc Island, especially in Providence anil its neighborhood. The people of that city are most fearful of the torch, as lire an fury have been threatened.

The more, however, we look into his movements, and those of his friends, Uio more we are convinced, Uiat although the gratification of private friendship is tho ostensible, the real uhject is, to feel his way, and judge for himself what are his chances for a second Presidential term, to which he has been already nominated by portion of lus friends.
